Article 118
To Lin Yu's surprise, after Yin Susu finished speaking, there was really movement from the forest, first the trivial sound of branches rubbing against clothes, and then a very light footsteps.
Walking out of the moonlight was a slender and delicate young man in white, with a pair of beautiful eyes that were quite similar to Yin Susu, shining with bright brilliance. The silver moonlight gilded his body with a faint layer of brilliance, and it seemed as if the elf in the moon stepped on the moonlight to come to the world.
"Xiaobai, how could it be you?" Lin Yu looked at Bai Feiruo in surprise, but she was taken aback just now.
"Who else but him?" Yin Susu was obviously angry, "Xiaobai, what are you doing!" Eavesdropping? ”
"I'm sorry." Bai Feiruo herself was also a little embarrassed and touched her chin. "It's just that I look at you and Xiaoyu, sister, and I'm a little curious about what you want to say, and you have to carry people behind your back. Besides, I'm afraid you're doing something dangerous. ”
What Yin Susu was doing really couldn't be considered safe, so Lin Yu didn't speak. However, Yin Susu was still very angry and glared at him, "You hurry up and go to rest, you don't have to worry about my affairs." ”
"But-" Bai Feiruo was still a little worried about Yin Susu, plus her parents' advice.
"No, go back to your room and rest now." Yin Susu said angrily, "If you inquire again, I will ask Uncle Bai to take you away and not allow you to stay in the capital." ”
"That's too overbearing, isn't it?" Bai Feiruo muttered softly, "I also care about you." ”
"Actually, Sister Su Su also cares about you." Lin Yu sighed, afraid that the two sisters and brothers would quarrel with each other, and said with the mud. "Sister Su Su and I really don't want you to get in with Qingqing ginseng. Besides, if we really need your help, we won't keep talking, and it's not right for you to be so inquiring so much now. When it's time to tell you, I'll tell you. ”
"It's really mine, no." Bai Feiruo also knew that he was doing something wrong, but he really didn't expect Yin Susu to be able to detect his existence. He looked at Yin Susu's angry face. He apologized very simply, "Sister, I'm sorry." I won't do that again. ”
"Be obedient, don't worry me, it's good." Yin Susu glanced at him, "Go and rest, it's not too early." ”
Seeing that Bai Feiruo's figure disappeared after a few rises and falls in the moonlight, Lin Yucai asked, "Sister Susu." How do you detect someone? I didn't hear any movement. ”
"Actually, I'm just cheating." Yin Susu smiled, "I didn't hear any movement either. ”
Lin Yu didn't believe this, just now Yin Susu's look was obviously sure that someone was eavesdropping, not as simple as cheating. However, Yin Susu didn't want to say it, so naturally there was a reason why he didn't want to say it. Lin Yu didn't continue to ask. Who doesn't have a hole card? Lin Yu himself didn't tell others about his five senses.
"Disturbed by this kid, let's go back to the house. Originally, I thought that this matter was not a secret, and the place where I lived was a little far away from where you lived, and said in the garden that it was convenient for you to go back and rest. In that case, come to my place for some supper and stay there. Don't worry too much about this if it was really those people who did it. You were young and largely unaware, and those people were unlikely to come at you. ”
"I'm not too worried, I can't hide from it, the soldiers will just cover the water."
Regarding this matter, Lin Yu really thought about it. Although Lin Ruoyu's father died because of this incident. But Lin Ruoyu himself didn't take revenge, so Lin Yu naturally wouldn't cause trouble. But after all, she was reborn in Lin Ruoyu, inherited Lin Ruoyu's cause and effect, and was also favored by others, if the murderer really appeared, she would not flinch.
"I didn't misread you after all." Yin Susu also laughed when he heard this, but after laughing, he was silent again, I don't know if Lu Dao remembered his relatives who died in vain, and his mood was low.
Lin Yu didn't speak, and the two walked silently to the Wuxin Pavilion where Yin Susu now lives. Because Yin Susu had said that he was going to eat supper, Jin He, who was following Yin Susu, immediately opened up.
As soon as Lin Yu and Yin Susu sat down, they took a sip of tea from their cups, and the four-color supper was placed in front of Lin Yu. The action is so fast, it seems that Yin Susu must have worked late before, and everything was always ready for supper.
The four items are osmanthus balls, cream cookies, crystal steamed dumplings with fresh meat, and chicken and egg porridge. Lin Yu basically didn't eat sweets at night, and asked for steamed dumplings and a bowl of porridge. Yin Susu is fond of sweets, and wants osmanthus balls and cream cookies. Lin Yu is very strange that she eats so many sweets every day, and she can still maintain such a good figure, you must know that since she successfully imitated the pastry, although she is very restrained every day, she has also gained a little weight.
The crystal steamed dumplings are small and cute, Lin Yu picks one up and puts it in his mouth, the gravy is salty and delicious, the meat is tender and smooth, and it is very delicious.
"How? Still. Yin Susu smiled, "I especially like the noodles made by this chef, what steamed dumplings and noodles are very delicious." ”
Yin Su is rich and spends money, and he is very good at enjoying it, Lin Yu's own skills are also very good, but he can't compare to this chef's exquisite skills. Because Lin Yu was also a little hungry, after eating half of the cage like a remnant cloud, Lin Yu stopped his chopsticks and talked about what had been interrupted before.
"Actually, after listening to Qingqing, I checked it carefully, and I still lost a little something, and there were two letters with one page missing each." Lin Yu sighed and said, "It is indeed the correspondence between him and Lord Yin in the past six months between his death and Lord Yin's accident. But the strange thing is that although there were three letters, the other party did not sign them, and I don't know what the reason is. There is also a letter that is said to be a close friend of my late father, and the letter he sent is also missing a page. ”
"No wonder Qingqing didn't notice it at first, the two letters were missing a page each, as long as you don't look closely, you can't see it." Yin Susu frowned, "It's a pity that this matter has dragged on for too long, I'm afraid that the other party will make a move, and it's over." Of course, I still have to send someone to check, so let's do it, Ming'er, I'll go with you, you show me the two letters, I'll look for it, see if I can follow the vine, if the other party is still alive, maybe I can find some clues. ”
"This is natural." Lin Yu nodded in response, hesitated for a moment and asked Yin Susu, "Sister Susu." Is there anything related to the assassination of the prince and princess this time and the theft? Or is it just a bunch of people? ”
"They are not in a group, I already know who the murderer is in this assassination case on the outskirts of Beijing. Not a gang. Yin Susu sneered twice, "Some people are too big-hearted, but the emperor is too careless." ”
"Who the hell is that?" For these two groups. It's hard for Lin Yu to say which one he hates more.
"It's okay to tell you." Yin Susu said, "That group of people will soon be unlucky." Behind the scenes, the emperor's throne was actually not very orthodox, the first emperor had no son-in-law, and he died suddenly without a prince, and now Yu Wenrong, the king of Runan, is the eldest son, and there is a group of civil officials who support him. And the emperor won the support of the army and took it by force. However, the emperor took good care of him and did not kill him, but sealed him in a remote area. ”
"It's been a decade or two, and now you're still fighting for the throne? And to assassinate those princes who are not very competitive? Lin Yu was a little puzzled.
"There are only seven adult princes on the emperor. The crown prince is not in good health, once the prince dies before the emperor, and the emperor did not set up a prince before the collapse, the rest of the adult princes will die again. He has the right to compete, and his son has the right to compete. If he wins over several other families, there is still a great possibility that he will succeed. ”
Yin Susu took a sip of tea and continued, "You have been suffering outside these days, and you don't know what to do. Not only the princes who traveled, but also the third prince and the second prince were assassinated. Only the fourth prince was far away on the frontier and was not assassinated, but he was born to a palace maid and was not favored at all. Heard. He also wanted to meddle in the palace and assassinate the crown prince, but Queen Liu was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so she found out in advance. ”
"How daring." Lin Yu shook his head, "His idea is good, but it is based on a premise, that is, the assassination can be successful, and if the assassination is not successful, his family's life will be given away." The chances of success are not high, he is planning to make a big splash before he dies. ”
"He wasn't shrewd in the first place." Yin Susu said lightly, "As for the true and false affairs, it was done by the three princes. In all fairness, the third prince still has some ability, and his temperament is a bit like the emperor. Although this thing did not work out, the emperor still wanted to protect him, and in case the prince really died early, it was not impossible to consider him becoming the prince. ”
"It's better not to do it, if he comes to power, isn't it that the Lu family of Zhenyuan Marquis is going to get up?" Lin Yu thought for a while, "Wouldn't that be bad for us?" ”
"You can rest assured of this." Yin Susu sighed, "In my opinion, although the prince's health is not good, he can still last for five or six years." The calculation of the three princes is afraid that it will not succeed. ”
"Eh, I almost said something wrong, who was the murderer in the case that killed Lord Yin and his father?" Lin Yu found that the two almost discussed the situation in the current court, and hurriedly moved back to the right path
"I don't know what to do." Yin Susu was silent for a moment before sighing, "Although it is said that this dynasty has been established for more than 50 years, the remnants of the first dynasty were not completely wiped out until the emperor took power. Of course, it is not clear what is right and wrong, so we will not mention it. And even if the so-called complete eradication is carried out, it is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net. The previous dynasty sat on the world for many years, the people lived in poverty, the nobles were extravagant year after year, and the treasury was very rich. However, after the extermination, it was found that the silver money did not match, and the most valuable treasures were missing, not to mention, there were 500,000 taels of gold, and the whereabouts of more than 10 million taels and nearly 20 million taels of silver were unknown. ”
"Is that hidden? Such a large sum of money, if it is obtained by the traitor party or the fish that slipped through the net of the previous dynasty, it will also cause a lot of waves. Lin Yu asked curiously, "But if the previous dynasty had gotten it, it should have made a fuss a long time ago." So, no one knows where this money went? ”
"Probably," Yin Susu sighed and said slowly, "I'll tell you in detail, the night is long." At that time, my father was ordered to track down the money, and I wanted him to just do it, which was always unpleasant. But my father didn't listen, he and the emperor knew each other when they were princes, and they were very loyal, and there was no one who didn't obey all the orders ordered by the emperor. ”
Lin Yu looked at her with a faint look in her eyebrows, and seemed to be very calm when she spoke, but for some reason, she felt that she was really in pain, so she quietly became a listener.
Later, he went to various places to investigate, and returned to his hometown halfway. I was running for a priestess in Kyori at the time, and I didn't go with it, but my cousin. My brother and aunt all went back. He also sent me a letter on the way, saying that he had found a key clue. ”
Yin Susu's tears fell drop by drop, crystal like crystal. As soon as such a beauty cried, Lin Yu and a woman felt heartache and discomfort, as if they were being caught. Yin Susu herself quickly wiped away her tears. Calmly recounted.
"Then I collected seventy-seven corpses by myself. Since then, I have followed the emperor to do things, and time flies really fast, more than eight years in a blink of an eye. I don't know if I can sacrifice the blood of the enemy when I go to the grave with my father for ten years. ”
"Absolutely." Lin Yu hurriedly comforted her, "Say it again." I guess my uncle also wants you to live happily, as long as you do your best, no matter what the result, he won't blame you. ”
"I hope so, but so many things have been suppressed in my heart for years. Once I say it, I feel a lot more relaxed. Yin Susu slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
She stood up, her posture straight, and her expression returned to her previous cold and resolute attitude, no longer the fragile pain she had just had.
"It's almost the fourth shift of the weather, you should go and rest. Tomorrow, there is still a lot of work to be done, and I cannot fall before I slash the enemy. ”
Lin Yu looked at her. sighed in my heart, and felt lucky again, although I couldn't see my relatives anymore, but my parents and brother still lived well in the 21st century. When Yin Susu was thirteen years old, he collected the corpses of more than 70 people in his family, and he was afraid that he would never forget the sorrow in his heart.
Because I listened to Yin Susu. I was also a little uncomfortable in my heart, Lin Yu had insomnia, looking at the clear silver moon ring outside the window, and almost opened his eyes until dawn.
"It's time to get up, didn't you make an appointment with Xiao Bai Qingqing and them to go to the restaurant? I'm going to your house to get the letter. ”
I don't know where Yin Susu got her energy, Lin Yu fell asleep when the sky was getting brighter, and she slept at two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, and she got up before seven in the morning. After washing himself, Yin Susu came to wake Lin Yu up again, Lin Yu rubbed his eyes, and the boss was reluctant to sit up.
"I'm sleepy, no, no, I still have to sleep for a while." After speaking, Lin Yu lay down again and was dragged up by Yin Susu, "I don't care when you and Xiaobai go to dinner, but it's true to hurry up and get the letter to me." ”
"What kind of medicine did you take, you slept so late last night, and you were still shining." Lin Yu was helpless, got up from the bed, and looked at Yin Susu, who had already been groomed and dressed, and was very puzzled. However, she herself didn't wear makeup, but quickly, she hurriedly freshened up, and went to the dining room with Yin Susu to eat.
Qingqing had already arrived, and was talking to Bai Feiruo when she saw the two of them coming in, glanced at the two of them, and said with a smile, "Xiaoyu, when did you smuggle to Sister Su Su to live?" Recruit from the truth! ”
Bai Feiruo was about to open his mouth, but he reacted again and quickly closed it. Lin Yu shook his drowsy head and glanced at Qingqing, "What did you just say?" I didn't hear clearly! ”
"Sleepy like this, be careful to eat into your nose." Qingqing saw that Lin Yu was so sleepy, and it was not easy to continue to ask, but she was not stupid, and she also knew a little about the past between Lin Yu and Yin Susu. However, Lin Yuming didn't want to get involved, and he couldn't surpass Yin Susu in everything, not even as good as Xiaoyu, and he really couldn't help, so he didn't worry about it.
After eating for a while, several people went to Lin Yu's house to pick up the letter, and Yin Susu took the letter and left in a hurry, leaving the three of them. The three of them were also happy, got into the carriage, and went to the restaurant.
Although there is still half an hour to get a serious meal, the business of the restaurant is still very good, and there is only a small half-empty seat in the lobby. The steward of Xiaoliang watched Lin Yu come over and trotted all the way to greet him.
"Miss? What wind is blowing you in? Hurry up, please take a seat. ”
Because it was already late to discuss going to the restaurant, Lin Yu also wanted to conduct a surprise inspection to see the real situation of the kitchen and other places, so Lin Yu did not ask anyone to notify the manager of Xiaoliang.
"No hurry, I'll go to the kitchen first." Lin Yu waved his hand, "You arrange a private room and tell everyone to rest first." ”
"Miss, there's no private room anymore!" Xiaoliang steward said, "The private rooms in our place are different from other places, and it is possible to book a private room three or four days in advance, you see, what should I do about this?" ”
Business is naturally booming, but Lin Yu didn't expect it to be so difficult to set up a private room, Xiaobai smiled, "It's okay, if not, let's sit in the hall, and listen to what new topics people say." ”
"It's okay, you can't drive out the people who have booked a private room, they are all dignitaries. You sit down and drink some water, and steward Xiaoliang and I will go to the kitchen to have a look. ”
"I'm going too." Bai Feiruo said curiously, "I haven't seen the kitchen of a restaurant yet." ”
"Then I guess you're going to be disappointed." Lin Yu shrugged his shoulders and said, "The kitchen in the restaurant is not as clean as at home. ”
However, to Lin Yu's surprise, the kitchen hygiene of the restaurant is really good. It was better than the standard set by Lin Yu, she carefully looked at the clothes on the chef's body, some sanitary dead corners or something, they were all good.
"Everyone, do a good job, celebrate that I'm safe and sound, and pay an extra month's salary this month." Lin Yu didn't say anything about the scene, and directly gave the bonus, ushering in the cheers of everyone.
After encouraging the staff, Lin Yucai came out with Xiaobai, just listening to a table talking about gossip in Beijing and gossip about himself.
Both of them pricked up their ears and listened, because of the theft, Lin Yu temporarily put the matter behind him. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
